[QUOTE="Hanging-On, post: 232352, member: 2325"] Well, this is what's happened so far. Right after he took the medications I asked both of them to pickup the toy room. Of course he was defiant and oppositional as usual. After some stress he finally did it. Then he began taking apart a broken plane and putting it back together with tape. This kept him quiet and focused. A little unusual, but he can hyperfocus on things like leggos and taping things. So I don't know if this was the medications. All the while I'm cleaning the bathrooms and needed the broom. I called out and asked him to bring me the broom, dust pan, and trash can. He was compliant and did it without his normal back talk and defiance which always causes a fight....THIS is NOT NORMAL. So I think the medications kicked in. Then I fell down the stairs and he helped me up and kissed my booboo hands....not normal, cuz this would normally freak him out that mommy got hurt. Then he played outside and when he came in he's not been yelling and causing trouble or complaining and wanting my every attention. So, what do ya'll think? Possibly the concerta is working. How long does it last, what happeneds when it starts to wear off? Thanks for all your help. [/QUOTE]
